Fashion is a wonderful thing. It represents all aspects of life. Have you ever thought of that curvy divas? Let's see, it showcases not just the design talents and skills of the people who create and make them from start to finish; fashion is created from our lives, the past and present, and also predicts future trends!
A month ago while I was doing Christmas shopping, I picked up a pair of shoes that I saw and loved the moment I laid eyes on them! Now, mind you I couldn't try them on because I had recently hurt my right foot and was still recovering from that injury, I couldn't wear shoes, let alone heels! They were also inexpensive but nicely made so what's not to like? I posted them on my Oh My Shoegasm page! I recently wore them (after healing - almost done) and oh my, they didn't disappoint!
It dawned on me that these stiletto heels were in the Bondage style! I decided to look around online for more shoes of this nature. I wasn't disappointed! There was such a plethora of shoes when I searched via Google and chose "Images"! An article caught my eye when I went back to the "Search" tab. I love the blog Polyvore, though I didn't log in, I read an article written in 2008, "Bondage Shoes - Love them or Hate them?" A pair they featured resembled mine! I noticed in the comments a lot of the readers said they loved the look but wouldn't wear them because of the look and/or they just didn't know what to wear them with (too bold a statement) etc.
Do you want to see what I wore mine with?
Shorts, and sweat-shirt sweater & shirt layered look! (the shorts are knee-length)
When it comes to fashion my opinion is this. It is in how you wear it, and how confident you are when you do! If you love a look and are attracted to it, why not try it. However, if you're going to worry about how others might feel about seeing you in what you wear, then don't do it because you're not going to carry-off your look with ease and style.
I was pretty eclectic growing up with my own sense of style and I still am. Admittedly I lost myself a bit as a grown up being in a certain type of environment. However, I've come full circle and I really don't care what other people think anymore!lol! Today at my age, in my head I'm still 27 but if I can look like I'm 37, I'm happy with that! (and yes, I'm older than 37!) The thing for you to do curvy divas is to know what you want, get it and own it!
